Ask a librarian if you can't find them by yourself. You are correct that people wore robes in Biblical times, not trousers. I think the basic Biblical teaching is that men should not dress like women and women should not dress like men. The garments that men or women should not wear will vary from one society to another and from one era to another. Marty Helgesen
